Abarbarea

Short description: Name of two nymphs

Template:Greek myth (nymph)In classical Greek and Roman mythology, Abarbarea (Ancient Greek: Ἀβαρβαρέη) is the name of two nymphs:

* Abarbarea, naiad wife of Bucolion.[1]
* Abarbarea, naiad ancestor of the Tyrians.[2]

Other writers do not mention this nymph, but Hesychius mentions "Abarbareai" (Ἀβαρβαρέαι) or "Abarbalaiai" (Ἀβαρβαλαια) as the name of a class of nymphs.[3][4]
